Christie McCarthy - The Rainy Season Lyrics

Its the rainy season and what can I say
My bones are creaking Ive been inside all day
And lately lazy mind, lazy ass sprawled out like a cat
Dog-eared as my Dharma paperbacks

I was born with my tongue down on the cutting floor
They wanted a daughter whod think about what she would say before
The truth comes pouring out like moulton lava
When it gets too hot inside bar the door

Id like to build a wall so I could tear it down
I think about the first thing I will teach my son or daughter
If you dont have anything thats nice to say
Go ahead and say it your own way

My soul is the eternal star burst sky
But my body feels restless I never can fall asleep at night until
I sing that little girl a song called Angel
And listen to the stories that she tells

She says come closer I have something that Ive been wanting to tell you
Its a secret that I thinks been too well kept
Just look at my perfect face and see Gods art
You know youre perfect just the way you are

Id like to build a wall so I could tear it down
I think about the first thing I will teach my son or daughter
All the universe lives inside a pearl in a shell
And honey dont you ever hide yourself

Its the rainy season down in my bones
But the pains retreating after such a huge and heavy load
Release it if you can, your love will grow
I was a rain cloud I should know

Id like to build a wall so I could tear it down
I think about the first thing I will teach my son or daughter
Took an old bag of songs turned em into flesh and bone
What you dream is what you own, youre so right you cant go wrong
